while i drive the faster i go it seems to blow out a little faster but really no change. i can only feel it when i put my hands on the vent.

The air flow is low. If the blower motor noise changes when setting is increased it means air restriction in the air flow circuit. Check the cabin filter if equipped.

Since the blower fan motor is not responding to the control, it could be a failing fan motor, a fault with the blower motor switch controller.

Is your HVAC system manual or automatic?

Automatic means the control panel has a function for Auto.

Seems the notification has a problem and I am not being nootified of any replies.
